Private AI Circuit — Full Blueprint

Terraform + scripts to run a private AI agent on AWS GPU.

Hermes Desktop · Ollama · Auto-stop · Pay-as-you-go.

You can plug this private AI circuit into any modern development environment:

- VS Code / Neovim: via the popular `Continue.dev` extension.

- Cursor / Cline / Roo Code: just point the base URL to your EC2 instance IP.

- JetBrains (IntelliJ, PyCharm): via AI Assistant or third-party LLM plugins.

Your development workflow stays exactly the same — but your AI autocomplete and chat now run on a dedicated AWS GPU inside your secure perimeter.

Run a private AI agent on AWS GPU in under 20 minutes.

Your code never leaves your AWS account. Your laptop stays cold and silent.

── What's included ──

user_data.sh    — auto-installs NVIDIA driver, Docker, Ollama,

and Hermes Remote Gateway on first boot (344 lines, production-tested)

pull-model.sh   — interactive model selector with GPU/RAM detection.

Shows which models fit your hardware, pulls with one keypress

start.sh      — starts your EC2 instance from your laptop,

waits for SSH, checks Ollama + Hermes status, shows loaded models

stop.sh      — graceful shutdown: stops services first, then instance.

No corrupted model files.

Full Terraform   — AMI data source (fixed), Elastic IP (static URL after every restart), GPU CloudWatch metric (auto-stop triggers on real GPU load, not CPU), least-privilege Lambda IAM

── What you get ──

→ Unlimited AI requests — no rate limits, no per-seat licensing

→ Zero data leaves your AWS account

→ Auto-stop when idle — pay only for active compute

→ ~$58/month for a team of 5 (vs $200+ in subscriptions)

→ Cold, silent laptop — all compute runs on remote GPU

── Requirements ──

→ AWS account with GPU quota approved (EC2 → Service Quotas → Running On-Demand G instances)

→ Terraform ≥ 1.5

→ AWS CLI configured

→ Hermes Desktop (free download at hermesdesktop.ai)

── After purchase ──

You receive a zip archive with the complete file structure.

Unzip → fill terraform.tfvars → terraform apply → done.
